GIE+EXPO is now…
In 2022, GIE+EXPO becomes Equip Exposition – the proving ground for the industry. It’s the one trade show where attendees can test before they invest in new products, new technologies, and new ideas for their business. After nearly 40 years, it was time to modernize and evolve the show to better reflect what it offers. We’ve expanded the show schedule, and added new features and programming to improve the experience for you and your team.

The show, which in 2021 attracted nearly 25,000 landscape and hardscape contractors, outdoor power equipment dealers and retailers, distributors, and manufacturers, is the place to grow, learn about today’s trends, and secure your place in the industry. We have expanded the Outdoor Demo Yard to nearly 30 acres, added new networking opportunities for you to connect with customers, and enhanced exhibitor technology to make it easier to promote your products.

Hardscape House Provides Unique Opportunities
Just steps away from the indoor exhibits and adjacent to the nearly 30-acre Outdoor Demonstration Yard, the Hardscape House brings three popular show features together under a 42,000-sq.-ft. open-air pavilion at Hardscape North America. The Hardscape House will include: • Exhibitor displays for hands-on product testing • Hardscape Demonstrations led by Local Roots Landscaping • HNA 2022 National Installer Championship
Hardscape House offers valuable opportunities industry members won’t find anywhere else. From the ability to get hands-on with equipment before making purchasing decisions to the expert demonstrations and the Installer Championship competition, the outdoor area at HNA provides a mix of business, learning and fun. Exhibitor Displays for Hands-On Testing, Expert Demonstrations and the National Installer Championship
One of HNA’s most attractive features for exhibitors and visitors alike is the opportunity to demo products. With the Hardscape House being just outside the indoor exhibits, attendees can see the new products indoors, then test and compare them with the competition before making buying decisions.
